@sleeve I had the same reaction when I realised, very useful feature. glad im not the only one who missed it. and as for midi loopback, every parameter on each main page of OT responds to CC messages, also the crossfader responds to CC so it allows you to manipulate your audio tracks using your midi tracks, this allows things like using extra midi LFOs, P-locking the crossfader position and using the arp on your audio tracks. now trig conditions adds more depth to that. heres a post from earlier in the thread I made about it

Scroll down to octatrack for CC info, plug OTs midi out into its own midi in and set the midi channel to the same as the audio tracks midi channel in project>midi>channel. trigless lock on the midi track using function+trig then P-lock CC values and set TRC for that trig in the microtiming menu, voila
edit: @sezare56 beat me to it! Ah well the CC chart is still useful

I agree, float/hold micro timing screen would be nice.
but as you know, FN+ARROW is already in use for the track step offset (horizontal arrows) and changing track modes (vertical).
We’d need a different combo.

By far the most inspiring and creativity arousing update for the OT. Am i the only one thinking fill is a little weird implemented? On the MK1 I’ve to push 2 buttons and wait for it to happen once, or latch it with 3 buttons…It’s not as straight forward and immediately like for instance the AR & A4/K where you just push the page button for fill. Probably because the use of the pagebutton as a keyboard button in chromatic trig mode?
